Eric Yardley - Catches on with JaysYardley agreed to a minor-league contract with the Blue Jays on Wednesday, Mitch Bannon of SI.com reports.

ImpactYardley will move on to his second organization of the season after the Cubs released him from his minor-league deal earlier this month. The 31-year-old right-hander, who made 17 MLB appearances with the Brewers in 2021, had given up nine earned runs on 12 hits and three walks over 4.2 innings at Triple-A Iowa this season before the Cubs cut him.

Nick Wittgren - Yields two runs TuesdayWittgren allowed two runs on three hits and a walk with no strikeouts in two innings during Tuesday's 8-1 loss to the Blue Jays.

ImpactWittgren's rough May continued Tuesday -- he's allowed runs in six of his 11 appearances this month. The 30-year-old now sports a 4.86 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 7:7 K:BB across 16.2 innings. He's picked up four holds, but none since May 2, indicating he may have slipped out of the high-leverage conversation for now.

Jordan Hicks - Shaky in loss to JaysHicks (1-4) took the loss Tuesday, giving up four runs on four hits and five walks over three-plus innings as the Cardinals were routed 8-1 by the Blue Jays. He struck out three.

ImpactThe conversion of Hicks from the bullpen to the rotation continues to go poorly, and Tuesday's five walks were a season high as he got only 40 of 78 pitches over the plate. The right-hander has managed to last five innings only once in seven starts and he's issued multiple free passes in all seven, posting a 5.84 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 24:18 K:BB over 24.2 innings during that stretch.

Danny Jansen - Goes yard twice against CardsJansen went 2-for-4 with two home runs and four RBI in Tuesday's 8-1 win over the Cardinals.

ImpactThe backstop launched a three-run shot off Jordan Hicks in the fourth inning and a solo blast off Drew VerHagen in the seventh. Jansen has only played in 11 games this season due to an oblique strain, but he's made the most of his chances by hitting .310 (9-for-29) with five homers, six runs and eight RBI.
